EDITORIAL NARRATIVE

We had a forty-minute window. Golconda's western ramparts catch the last light around 6:10 PM in February, and after that the granite goes flat and blue. Harika and Nikhil climbed the whole thing in wedding clothes without complaining once. Everything here is natural light — one reflector, no flash, and a lot of running between bastions.

They made two people who hate being photographed look like a film poster.
